What is 0.012 percent of 3338000 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 3338000 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 3338000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3338000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.012% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.012%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3338000=100%
2) x=0.012%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
3338000/x=100%/0.012%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 0.012% of 3338000

3338000/x=100/0.012
(3338000/x)*x=(100/0.012)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3338000=8333.3333333333*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8333.3333333333) to get x
3338000/8333.3333333333=x
400.56=x
x=400.56

now we have:
0.012% of 3338000=400.56
